Prague Metro System Lines & Maps
MAPS & LINES
The metro lines, like in Frankfurt and Madrid, are color-coded and are assigned numbers. Luckily, there are only three different lines to choose from and to make connections. The line you take depends on the end destinations or points of those lines. The signs hang above the platforms and are clear once you get the destination points down and the electronic monitors are easy to read as well. The incoming and outbound metros and stops are announced in the platform areas as well as inside the metros themselves. In addition, there are metro line maps inside the metros to use as guides.
Prague 1 and 2 Stops – if you’re in Prague 1 in or near Wenceslas Square, Namesti Miru or Vinohradska areas, you’re just minutes away from accessible the accessible metro stops of Hlavni Nadrazi (Line C) and Muzeum (Line A and C).

The metro stops with lifts are situated at the ends of the metro stop platforms. Look for the elevators or lifts – Vytahs – signs.
